Hard to belive isn't it? After the last economic crisis I thought that Dubai is over. I guess I was wrong.

Well, the Burj "Khalifa" topped out last January, so when Dubai finally started to feel the pains of the recession the building was almost finished, so this specific project had nothing to worry about that way...it would be far too embarrassing for them to abandon it at that late a date.

However on the whole Dubai (and Dubai World specifically) are still in real financial trouble. As they don't have any oil of their own they rely too much on outside investment, and that's just not coming the in amounts they need.

If it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn't, it ain't. That's logic.

I'll join you on your "adventure". I shall pay for the tickets, and shoot everybody on the plane in the head when you're done raping them.

How do you intend to smuggle a gun aboard? There are devices so sophisticated nowadays they can locate individual gun parts at any angle that are smuggled in luggage. Also there's a machine that can detect volatile substances and differentiate between harmful and non-harmful liquids, all just by scanning the bag.

We build the plane ourselves. We can just shove the gun in the floor boards. Simple.
